Easy.
- Find if your engine has an oil drain into the sump. If not drill and tap one.
- Remove old exhaust manifold and down pipe.
- Remove old inlet manifold
- Fit 306 TD inlet manifold
- Fit 306 TD turbo, manifold and down pipe.
- Fit oil lines
- Fit boost pipe and TMIC from 306 TD
- Live happily ever after.
Really you'll want the fuel pump off a 306 TD too, preferably the early bosch type, otherwise you wont make alot of extra power as the non turbo pump unsurprisingly don't have boost compensators. Thats a straight bolt of bolt on swap too though.
You would be far better and easier fitting a whole 306 TD engine
As described above, they have lower compression ratios and possibly stronger internals and IIRC a better clutch as well as coming with all the bits you need you'll also get the more suitable longer ratio'd gear box. Buying all the bits you need separately will cost more than just buying a complete turbo engine.
